Chapter 131: The Disease Will Be Eradicated
On August 23, 176 AH, on a nameless island, the old nobles who wanted to be restored were meeting. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Everyone is here, right?"
Liang Ben was the presiding officer of this meeting and the leader of the "Restoration League." He is the emperor of the Ira Empire, with the highest status, the most money, and the most soldiers, so everyone will elect him as the leader of the alliance.
There are now 185 so-called "member states" of the Restoration League. More than half of the member states are small forces with a population of less than 1 million. Liang Ben wanted to gather more members, and the purpose of this meeting was to discuss how to persuade the old nobles who had surrendered to the Byronic Empire with the idea of restoration to cooperate with them.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the power of unity is great!" "In the last war, we saw how powerful the evil Byrons were. I am a very practical person, and I will not tell you that as long as we have ideals, we can restore the country and succeed. There is a price to be paid for the restoration of the country! We need people! We need money! We need better weapons! We must become stronger than the House of Byron to defeat them! So we must join forces! Bring the power together! ”
"When we destroy the Byrons family, the whole world will be divided up with us! Those Ira's shrine maidens who have taken refuge in the House of Byron are up to you! The once priceless Tajon elves and the Ilibi are your slaves! What bullshit is the money in the Imperial Bank, it's all yours! When the time comes, you will have what you want! You can't divide a flatbread no matter how you divide it! There's enough for everyone! Even full to cramps! ”
Liang Ben's words made the eyes of the old nobles flash with a greedy light, and only a few young female nobles who attended the meeting glanced at each other without showing anything. Liang Ben noticed them, and he walked quickly to the young noblewomen and asked them nervously.
"Don't you crave these things?!"
The young noblewoman was afraid of revealing her true intentions, so she forced a smile and pretended to be very eager. Liang Ben saw their expressions and laughed even more nervously. His laughter was eerie and harsh, sending chills down his spine.
"Hehehehehehe...... It's just the fools of the Byrons family who don't care about these things! The stupidest of them all, I say, is that Hamr! Don't look at him to capture Xiangping City, it's just luck! He is a boy who relies on his father's protection and gilds in the army! It's a waste! ”
"Shut up! You shameless thief! You are not allowed to insult His Highness Hamere! ”
"His Highness Hamr is not a wasted man!"
"His Highness Hamel relied on his own strength to defeat Xiangping City!"
"You are not worthy of the name of His Highness Tihamor!"
"You don't even deserve to carry shoes for His Highness Haml!"
These young female nobles intended to go undercover in the rebel party, but their city was not deep enough, and when they were provoked by Liang Ben's words, they stood up angrily and said these words that were enough to expose their purpose. They were all admirers and even admirers of Prince Hamere. Although they had not heard Prince Hammer's speech in person, each of them had a copy of the speech "You Are Human".
The people they admire, or even admire, are insulted, and ordinary people must not be able to stand it, and it is normal for these young female nobles to be exposed. They are not professional undercover agents, but out of enthusiasm for Prince Hamele, they took the initiative to come to the rebel party as undercover agents, and the Byrons family did not know about this at all.
"Hehehehe...... His Highness Hameer? You actually call him His Highness Haml? ”
Liang Ben spread his hands to the stunned rebel leaders, revealing a comical expression.
"Dear comrades, don't you think that there are a few traitors among us?"
As soon as the words were spoken, several guards rushed up and put their swords around their necks. Some of the people at the scene were related to them, but none of them dared to stand up for them, because they were traitors, and speaking for them could easily be regarded as accomplices of traitors.
"Oops! I'm the most - I love traitors! ”
Liang Ben happily turned around and put on a girlish and shy posture.
"Especially in bed."
When several young female nobles heard this, they all wanted to die. But the guards were quicker than they were, and grabbed their wrists with their backhands, removing their swords from their necks.
"Send them to my room, and I'm going to torture them tonight!"
Liang Ben's words made the faces of those who were related to these young female nobles darken, they knew what Liang Ben wanted to do to them, but they couldn't do anything about it. Because Liang Ben said "torture", not "enjoyment" and the like, and the deep meaning of this "torture" must not be punctured.
Moreover, now Liang Ben is the most powerful force in the "Restoration Alliance", and his people are very loyal to him, and there is no possibility of being co-opted. So now Liang Ben is the dominant family in the Rich Nation Alliance, and he is whatever he says, and no one can resist at all.
What happened to these young noblewomen woke the rebels from the erosive illusions they had since the destruction of the Byrons family. They realized that Liang Ben's words were painting cakes for them, and in the case that Liang Ben's family was dominant, even if they eliminated the Byron family, this cake would be eaten by Liang Ben alone.
The rebels exchanged glances, and everything was silent. In the following meeting, they unanimously agreed with Liang's efforts to co-opt other rebels, and said that they would do their best to accomplish this task. The rebels are not dealing with Liang Ben in doing this, they really want to win over more rebels to join the "Restoration League".
Just like Liang Ben just said, the power of unity is great. As long as there are enough members of the Restoration League and the strength is strong enough, Liang Ben cannot have the final say alone. For the sake of profit, the rebels will do their best to win over other rebels as they say, until everyone's strength can overwhelm them.
The performance of the rebels made Liang Ben very satisfied. He dismissed the meeting early and returned to his room humming a little tune. The young noblewomen were tied up and thrown on his bed, and he deliberately pretended to be lewd, taking the cloth that gagged their mouths, and holding his hands on them, while constantly insulting the Byrons family.
Several young female nobles were powerless to resist, scolded Liang Ben for being shameless, and said that the Byrons family would definitely not let him go. In fact, Liang Ben dared to do this because there were no Leiting people among these young female nobles, otherwise he would never do this.
After confirming that these young female nobles were really interested in the Byrens family, Liang Ben stopped acting and loosened the ties on these five people. He sat back on the chaise longue in a languid posture and spoke to them in a leisurely tone.
"You guys, you have long hair and short knowledge, and you don't know how many pounds and taels you have. I know you weren't sent by the House of Byrons, because they couldn't have sent such a stupid man. I have no interest in you idiots, and I don't ask for much, I just hope you don't have too much to do. Rest assured! I will not kill you, nor will I do anything to you - do not look at me with such strange eyes, it hurts your self-esteem to be looked at by fools with such strange eyes. ”
Several young female nobles were already surprised when they were untied, and after listening to Liang Ben's words, they were even more surprised. They couldn't figure out Liang Ben's pulse, and they didn't know what he wanted to do, so they didn't dare to act rashly at all.
"I'll let you go, but you'll have to leave something for me. I want a strand of your hair, and what you think is the most important thing, preferably the kind that proves your identity, preferably with blood on it, so that people can believe that you are dead. In a moment my men will bring you men's clothes, which may stink a little, but you must put them on for me. My men will take you to the city of Byron to meet Prince Hambar, whom you admire the most. I need you to carry a letter to his father for me, in fact, there is no need for you to carry this letter, just let my people go, you just picked up a big bargain, so you should thank me. ”
Speaking of this, Liang Ben snorted nervously.
"You'd better thank me now, be sincere, you won't have a chance later."
After that, Liang Ben sat up straight, looking at several young female nobles expectantly, obviously waiting for them to thank them. Several young noblewomen still didn't understand the situation, and they didn't even believe that Liang Ben would let them go, let alone send them to Byron City to meet their most admired prince Ham.
"Well, I knew you idiots wouldn't believe it."
Liang Ben lazily lay back on the recliner, tapped the fingers of his right hand on his thigh, and then suddenly sat up again.
"I've changed my mind." He looked at the young noblewomen with an unhappy look on his face and said, "I'm not going to let you idiots change your clothes in my room!" Come! Come!!! ”
Several guards immediately rushed into the room and waited for Liang Ben's order.
"Take these chicks to the warehouse! It's the dirtiest and smelliest one! They are the ones in charge of carrying out the 'Plan 24', so let's go tonight and take them away!! ”
The so-called No. 24 plan is what Liang Ben just said. Maybe it was for the convenience of giving orders, or maybe it was for setting up code words, Liang Ben made a lot of predetermined plans. He lists all the possible scenarios for each person carrying out a particular program to remember.
His guards were not the ones in charge of carrying out Plan 24, but his guards knew who was in charge of carrying out which plans. The guards took the young noblewomen and threw them into the dirtiest and smelliest warehouses where they were imprisoned. Some of the rebels who had not yet left Nameless Island saw this scene, and they wanted to know what happened to these girls, so they continued to stay outside and watch the excitement.
It didn't take long for several sturdy soldiers to walk into the warehouse with knives. It only took a few breaths for the screams and screams of a young girl to be heard in the warehouse, and it didn't take long for the sound to fade away. After a while, the soldiers came out with bloody knives. The rebels wrinkled and shook their heads, then left.
Of course, Liang Ben didn't kill them, but the blood on the knife was indeed theirs. In order to make them scream and scream, the soldiers cut their palms and bleed a lot. Liang Ben didn't care if they would leave scars, anyway, Ira's shrine maiden could cure these things, and it didn't matter if they left.
After the rebels had left, another soldier arrived at the warehouse with stinking male clothing. The soldiers told the young noblewomen to change their clothes and told them to wipe their faces on the ground and make themselves as dirty as possible.
Only then did the young female noblewoman believe that Liang Ben was going to let them go. They didn't want to wear these dirty, smelly clothes, and they didn't want to make themselves dirty, but they had to do it in order to get out of here. They thought they were dirty enough, but when the soldiers came to inspect them, they scolded them harshly, saying that they were too clean.
"Have you seen the beggar? You're going to play the role of a refugee and a beggar! Do it like that! ”
The young noblewomen were reprimanded twice before the soldiers were satisfied. That night, four soldiers dressed as refugees took the young noblewomen and left the island by boat. Before leaving, they found that the defenders of the island were busy, and after asking the soldiers who were traveling with them, they learned that Liang Ben was about to move.
They wanted to know where Liang Ben was going to move his lair so that he could report to Hamr. The soldiers didn't tell them, and told them to be honest and not to play tricks. As long as they are obedient, they will take them to the city of Byrons. If they run away, they will not hesitate to kill them.
When the group arrived in the city of Byrons, it was already November 19th.
Refugees were not allowed to pass through the Stonewall checkpoint, so the soldiers took them directly to the Supervisory Council branch in Ximen Town, where they said they knew about the betrayal and wanted to talk to the person in charge there.
They waited for five days in Simon before they waited for Hamm. Haml didn't understand why he asked to come by name, but he came anyway. In fact, the "Plan No. 24" itself was Liang Ben's act of sending young female nobles who were influenced by Hamel and went undercover in the rebel party to Byron City and let them see him. In order to make this all natural, he asked his subordinates to carry a letter to Mel for him.
The content of the letter is only one sentence: The root of the disease will be removed, do not read it.
